Kester and his party slowly walked through the misty forest. From time to time, the guide chatted with Koster, and Feida was a little hard, lying down in the carriage to rest, and twenty Kaman guards in front and behind, holding spears, guarded the safety of the convoy. On the carriage, the Golden Jasmine heraldic flag of the Principality of Kaman fluttered in the wind.

After passing through a large forest, the guide suddenly came to the spirit, "Lord Koster, we have gone deep into the misty forest, and in front of us is the acropolis of the main elven city." The caravans generally traded with the elves in the Acropolis, and the envoys had to stay in the Acropolis first, waiting for the elf king's reception. ”

"Okay, I see, I'm going to wake up Feida, and you continue to drive the carriage. ”

Koster woke up Feda, and the two of them got dressed up and walked outside the carriage, and not far away, Koster saw a strange "city" in the woods.

Unlike other cities, this is a small city made entirely of greenery. In the dense jungle, there were many treehouses woven with plants and vines, scattered on the branches of high and low, and various petals were woven into the shape of plaques, hanging in front of each treehouse, and Koster swore that he also saw some shiny bubbles rotating around the treehouse.

The red sun's rays reflected through the trees overhead, showing a little spot of light in front of the treehouse. In the jungle, the path that had been stepped out of it stretched to the gate of the small city, and a group of elves, now waiting there, apparently already knew of the arrival of the company.

The carriage scurried along, slowly stopping at the end of the road, and the guide jumped out of the carriage, saluted the leading elf, and then introduced him to Koster, "Hello, Captain Ficcio, this is the ambassador of the Duchy of Kaman, Lord Koster. ”

The leading elf, nodding, suddenly raised his left hand, stretched it upward, and at the same time stood upright and then bent down, and said in his mouth: "Welcome to Nosirio!"

The guide whispered in Kist's ear, "This is the etiquette of the elves to welcome guests who come to the elven realm for the first time, and Nosirio is the transliteration of the elven word for the temple of the tree. Captain Ficcio is usually responsible for dealing with humans who come and go, and is a human expert. ”

Kist understood, but he was very entangled, he didn't know what etiquette to use, but fortunately, the guide was still sophisticated, he stepped forward and handed Karman's golden jasmine heraldic flag, which meant that Koster came here as the minister of the Duchy of Karman.

The elf, named Fioqi, took the heraldic banner and handed it to a female elf behind him, then turned around, "Please come with me." ”

The guide hurriedly motioned for Kerst to follow. As he walked, Koster observed that the elves were all extremely handsome, with slender figures, each with golden pupils, extremely dazzling, and full of purple and green hair, of varying lengths.

The leader is Captain Ficcio, a young-looking male elf with explosive muscles, and wears a very ornate set of armor, which appears to be made of bronze and carved with various openwork patterns. There was a longbow on his back, and that bow, all green, was also carved with many strange runes. There was a quiver next to the bow, and there were about thirty feathered arrows in the quiver, and at the end of the feathered arrows, it was a kind of red tail feathers, which I don't know what kind of animal feathers were made.

Behind Captain Ficcio were three men and one woman and four elves, dressed in light leather armor, each carrying a longbow and a barrel of feathered arrows. All three male elves are green-haired, and the remaining female elves are purple-haired.

Ficcio's team led the group to the very center of the town, where there was a tall tree with a small platform of twenty grams in length and width, and on the platform was a green shack, also made of branches.

Captain Ficcio turned back to Koster and said, "Minister Kost, please stay here for the time being, and after we have informed the elves, we will invite you to the main city, which is not far from here, and this is the outpost acropolis of the main city." ”

Kostro nodded, "Okay, no problem, trouble Captain Fizio." ”

Captain Ficcio continued: "The Acropolis is relatively free, and the elves here deal with the outside world all year round, so you can be unrestricted here. But after entering the main city, you have to obey our arrangements at all times. Now, I'm going to ask the Elf King, and Xiao Han will introduce you to the follow-up arrangements. As he spoke, Captain Ficcio pointed to the only female elf beside him.

Kerst nodded to the female elf named Xiaohan. Xiao Han didn't seem to be very old, and looked at Caster and Feida, who were leaning together, and his face turned red.

After settling down, Koster can finally calm down and take a closer look at this elven city. It is said that it is an acropolis, but in fact, it seems more appropriate to say that it is a small village. As far as the eye can see, there are more than 20 treehouses, which are all the buildings in this small town. Compared to the Kerst Manor, this is the smaller one.

As the acropolis of the main elven city, there are not many inhabitants of this small city, and there is only one elf sitting there in many buildings, and behind them, Kester found a lot of handicrafts, armor and jewelry made by elves.

Explain to the guide that there are often elves from the main city, who store the things they make here, and when a human caravan arrives here, they can trade with them as soon as they come.

Koster looked abruptly realised. He pulled Feida and came to a treehouse, where an old female elf sat next to the treehouse, and there were all kinds of jewelry in the room, including garlands made of flowers, bracelets woven with grass, hairpins made of bronze, etc., unlike human craftsmanship, the elves' manufacturing skills were quite gorgeous, and the simple materials were made with a luxurious atmosphere.

Kester couldn't help but pick up a bronze hairpin and lifted Feida's hood, preparing to put it on Feida's hair.

However, a cry of surprise interrupted Chester's movements. The shopkeeper, who had been sitting there drowsy just now, opened his eyes at some point and was staring at Feida.

"What's wrong?" Kerst wondered.

"This girl, you are from here. The old elf squinted his eyes and said slowly.

Feida, after entering the Misty Forest, wore a hood that tightly covered her two pointed ears. Feida is a half-elf, the child of an elven slave girl, and she doesn't know what the elves here will have towards her.

Therefore, when the old elf in front of her asked this sentence, Feida felt a little embarrassed, she didn't know what this female elf meant.

Fortunately, the old elf was very kind, and when he saw that Feida did not speak, he stood up tremblingly, walked up to Feida, stretched out his arms, and hugged Feida in his arms, "Don't be afraid, child, this is home." ”

Flattered, Felda was held in the arms of the old elf, and she didn't know where to put her hands, so she had to ask for help with her eyes.

The old elf pulled Feida to sit down, and from time to time took out some jewelry from the table for Feida to put on her head, and gestured back and forth, Feida was very embarrassed, and Kerst giggled on the side.

However, things are not so simple, just when the three of them were chatting easily, there was a "whoosh", something suddenly smashed into the house, and then "jumped", Chester was startled, and looked closely, I don't know when a stone flew on the table.

Kester rushed out of the treehouse, only to see several young elves gathered under the treehouse, men and women, looking very young, Kester thought they were still children. The old elf pulled Feida out of the treehouse as well.

The young elf under the tree looked indignant, and Kerst couldn't figure it out. One of them opened his mouth and shouted, "Get out, half-blood!" and several others chimed in.

Hearing their words, Feida's face turned pale as soon as she "brushed", which was what she feared the most, and she couldn't refute it yet.

Kerst hurriedly gave Feida a reassuring look, then crossed his waist and shouted at the elves below: "Who are you talking about?

However, the elves below did not buy it, and still did not give up, "I heard what you said to Grandma Ness, you are a half-blood!" a girl shouted at Feida.

Fortunately, at this time, the old elf, as the children called Grandma Ness, patted Feida lightly, and then stepped forward: "Eugene, Pedro, Martha, Billy (Note 1), you guys, if you say that again, don't come to me to listen to the story in the future! ”

Grandma Ness's threat was apparently much more effective than Ixter's, and when she said that, the children below scattered in all directions, grimacing as they ran.

Grandma Ness pulled Feida back into the house, "Okay, okay, kids, they're all just kids, don't take it personally, we all know how it was back then." ”

Perhaps it was because of the heartbreak of these children, and Feida had been sullen for the rest of her life, and Kerst could understand her. In the human world, Feida is an elven hybrid in people's mouths, and in the elven territory, she is a human hybrid, and neither party recognizes it, and this feeling of no sense of belonging makes Feida very uncomfortable.

Grandma Ness is indeed a very kind elf, and she comforts Phaeda until Kerst and Ferda leave, and finally forcibly shoves Ferda's first favorite headdress to Phaida. Feida thanked him, and went back to his temporary house with Kester.

At night, this small city is suddenly filled with green fluorescence. Kester studied it carefully and found that the pillars of these treehouses, for some reason, were spontaneously fluoresce, "Could it be that this is also the power of magic?"

As a result of these green glows, the town would not look particularly deserted on a quiet night, and after sitting in the glow for a while, Kerst noticed that Captain Ficcio had come under the tree at some point:

"Ambassador Koster, the elves have agreed to your request for an audience. Tomorrow morning, we can go to the main elven city. ”

Note 1: I watched the movie "Shazam" a few days ago, and suddenly remembered to use these names, which should be quite interesting. The main reason is that I'm too lazy to think about the name.。。。。
